You're right.. That's why the Habs are falling..

Boston can only rely on one 1 for so long.

The Atlantic finishes;

1-Tampa
2-Toronto
3- Boston

Forgive me, I'm going to throw this up here again - mostly because I want to talk about the goals against:


Atomic Wedgie's Keefe's Leafs Extrapolatorator


20 games. 31 points.

Extrapolated over an 82 game season, that would be 127 points - 5 points shy of the Habs' all-time record. Washington is currently on pace for 120 - tops in the league.

82 goals for in 20 games. Extrapolated over an 82 game season, that's 336 goals. Nowhere near the 83-84 Oilers - 446 goals for. Yeah, doubt that one will ever be broken. But last year, Tampa was top team with 325.

54 goals against in 20 games. Extrapolated over an 82 game season, that's 221 goals against. Hold on to .HoHo.'s hat - that would have been the 5th best GA in the league last year. So for those of you who are saying that the Leafs are giving up too many goals under Keefe, it's simply not statistically accurate. In fact, it's wrong.

Goal differential: it would be +115 goals. Last year, Tampa was tops at +103.

Yeah, yeah, if ifs and buts were candy and nuts...

But the numbers are startling enough to force even Drunken Canuck and other haterz to admit that something pretty special is going on here.

During this great run, Tampa has actually made up ground and is now only one point behind with two games in hand.

Awesome, great for them.

Both us and the Lighting fan bases are very happy for the teams.

Good observation and thank you for telling us useless facts that we already know.

TB has 1 more point since Keefe took over in 3 more games (23-20)

Since Keefe the Leafs are the best point % but a decent margin .775
TB .696

But yes TB is a very good team, everyone knows this

Too bad the Leafs aren’t the Habs right now.

Instead of comparing them to the Lightning we could compare them to Buffalo. So much more fun.

I think the context here is important, almost certain Bolts will be 1st round opponent in playoffs and this is a head to head fight for home ice advantage.

At some point playing Borowedwitky 25 minutes a night will end them.

Both Tampa and Leafs have been very solid in the past month. At the same time Ottawa has dropped to where they belong. Unfortunately for the Sens regardless of how many good assets they will get in the upcoming draft, they are still owned by Eugene Melnyk. If the Sens are fortunate enough to win the draft lottery, I could picture the sour look on Lafreniere's face being far worse than that of McDavid's when Oilers won the lottery in 15. I would take it a step further that top pick the Sens get may refuse to sign with or demand an immediate trade as Lindros did years ago.

Last time I checked Boston was 6 points up on the Leafs and 4-1-5 in their last 10 games while Leafs were 9-0-1 (BTW Sens were a putrid 3-4-3)


Enjoy your trolling adventures.
